Description

Currently, in order to preload plugins, you have to add an exec-maven-plugin task to scan your code. Ideally, there'd be an annotations artifact (at least for the plugin annotations, but really just has to have all the necessary ones used for this) and a processor artifact that you'd include in your project. Then the maven-compiler-plugin would automatically run that annotation processor on your project during the compile phase. This would require less work from the end user to support their own custom plugins.
